Jeff should leave rocketry to the experts and stick to next day delivery of Amazon Packages.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

They'll have to rebuild their pad and do some redesigning of their rocket.  This will set them back a year at least.
